Mark Giordano – Class 3 – Comfort in Abuse – Retribution in the Kingdom

1
00:00:03,400 –> 00:00:05,800
The third classroom brother
marks series on the God of All

2
00:00:05,800 –> 00:00:10,400
Comfort, is entitled comfort in
abuse and retribution in the

3
00:00:10,400 –> 00:00:23,000
Kingdom of the mark.
Brothers and sisters, thank you

4
00:00:23,000 –> 00:00:26,800
for bearing with me through this
one of the roller coaster ride

5
00:00:26,800 –> 00:00:35,400
of emotions and joy, is in the
future. it’s going to get a

6
00:00:35,408 –> 00:00:39,500
little bit darker now for this
one, but it’s important because

7
00:00:39,500 –> 00:00:48,200
of the pervasive.
Factor of this particular

8
00:00:48,200 –> 00:00:51,400
problem.
It’s the kind of we’re speaking

9
00:00:51,400 –> 00:00:55,400
now about comfort in abuse and
the recompense for in the

10
00:00:55,400 –> 00:00:59,000
Kingdom.
And abuse is one of those kinds

11
00:00:59,000 –> 00:01:03,400
of things that don’t really hit
you until you come face-to-face

12
00:01:03,400 –> 00:01:06,800
with it and then it becomes a
penetrating nightmare.

13
00:01:09,200 –> 00:01:15,300
Consuming her things from direct
personal experience with another

14
00:01:15,300 –> 00:01:19,600
sister.
In our Alicia, one that I grew

15
00:01:19,600 –> 00:01:23,400
up with new all her life and had
no idea what was going on in the

16
00:01:23,408 –> 00:01:29,000
background of her life, but it’s
important because like I said,

17
00:01:29,000 –> 00:01:33,300
it’s a pervasive problem.
But it’s also a problem that God

18
00:01:33,300 –> 00:01:37,500
is very much aware of and his
recompense in the kingdom, is

19
00:01:37,500 –> 00:01:39,100
going to cover abuse at all
levels.

20
00:01:39,100 –> 00:01:42,200
And you think about it.
There are despotic rulers of

21
00:01:42,200 –> 00:01:46,400
Nations who are abusive to the
to all the peoples in their

22
00:01:47,100 –> 00:01:52,300
regime.
So, abuse starts at a very high

23
00:01:52,300 –> 00:01:58,000
level in the Spiritual hosts of
wickedness in high places in the

24
00:01:58,000 –> 00:02:03,300
world and works its way all the
way down into homes, where

25
00:02:04,600 –> 00:02:08,900
horrible things are done and
people are helplessly bound to

26
00:02:08,900 –> 00:02:14,700
their own personal nightmare
abuse is the 9 million pound

27
00:02:14,700 –> 00:02:18,700
gorilla in the world.
Gorilla, that’s very hard to

28
00:02:18,700 –> 00:02:24,400
see, but it is there.
So, because of what the sister

29
00:02:24,400 –> 00:02:28,700
went through, and because I
know, statistically, and

30
00:02:28,700 –> 00:02:32,500
factually the level of
pervasiveness of this problem.

31
00:02:33,500 –> 00:02:36,400
I felt that it was important to
bring this segment to Ecclesia

32
00:02:36,400 –> 00:02:39,300
it’s because in the Norfolk
Ecclesia we had to do something

33
00:02:39,300 –> 00:02:44,900
about it and we’ll go over that
when we get into our remarks

34
00:02:44,900 –> 00:02:49,800
here news is I want to show you
the scope of the problem in the

35
00:02:49,800 –> 00:02:55,300
world its domestic abuse is
known as the invisible prime.

36
00:02:56,400 –> 00:03:01,700
It involves child exploitation
which Professionals in the field

37
00:03:01,900 –> 00:03:07,100
regard as Optional, homicide
other words, it destroys someone

38
00:03:07,100 –> 00:03:12,200
emotionally.
The problem is so pervasive that

39
00:03:12,200 –> 00:03:15,800
you either know, someone who is
suffering from abuse or you have

40
00:03:15,800 –> 00:03:19,100
known someone or you yourself,
or suffering from abuse or you

41
00:03:19,100 –> 00:03:23,800
may even be hiding abuse
covering it unwillingly or

42
00:03:23,800 –> 00:03:27,600
willingly covering it.
But in any case, it’s pervasive

43
00:03:27,600 –> 00:03:29,900
enough for all of us to have
come into contact, unless you’re

44
00:03:29,900 –> 00:03:32,700
very young.
And just having yet with someone

45
00:03:32,800 –> 00:03:35,400
who is, Is being abused or has
been abused.

46
00:03:36,300 –> 00:03:40,300
The British a British crime
survey said that abuse affects 1

47
00:03:40,300 –> 00:03:46,600
in 4 women.
And 1 in 6, men, 30 is an

48
00:03:46,600 –> 00:03:52,700
average of 35 assaults against a
victim before they call police

49
00:03:52,900 –> 00:03:55,600
and this can take place over
years of time.

50
00:03:56,400 –> 00:03:59,700
These statistics are kind of
horrifying just to consider as

51
00:03:59,700 –> 00:04:04,000
many as 70 percent of homeless
women report, domestic abuse.

52
00:04:04,000 –> 00:04:07,000
We’ve already spoken about in
Sister Dawn’s life but she’s not

53
00:04:07,000 –> 00:04:08,600
the case.
That will present in the

54
00:04:08,600 –> 00:04:12,500
testimony today right now.
It’s generational.

55
00:04:13,500 –> 00:04:17,800
And abused children themselves
grow up to be abusers in child.

56
00:04:17,800 –> 00:04:23,700
Exploitation, the statistics are
now one in three girls and one

57
00:04:23,700 –> 00:04:26,500
in five, boys are exploited
before.

58
00:04:26,500 –> 00:04:31,100
They are 18 and the me to the
movement is evidence of this.

59
00:04:31,100 –> 00:04:35,600
The problems with the Olympics,
the problems in colleges that

60
00:04:35,600 –> 00:04:38,700
used to be a problem Day, School
centers of particular problem.

61
00:04:38,700 –> 00:04:42,400
In the hierarchy of the Catholic
church and its cover-up of

62
00:04:42,400 –> 00:04:45,200
abuse.
All of those things affect these

63
00:04:45,200 –> 00:04:48,200
statistics of every, this is
common knowledge in the news

64
00:04:48,200 –> 00:04:51,600
these days in our lives.
So I don’t have to kind of

65
00:04:51,600 –> 00:04:57,300
impress you with the legitimacy
of this statistic, 90% of the

66
00:04:57,308 –> 00:04:59,600
victims, know the perpetrator in
some way.

67
00:04:59,600 –> 00:05:06,200
And 68% of the perpetrators are
in the family. 95% of the people

68
00:05:06,200 –> 00:05:16,600
who are abusers used churches or
religious as covers. 2.9 Million

69
00:05:16,600 –> 00:05:19,900
cases were reported, are
reported in the US every year.

70
00:05:19,900 –> 00:05:23,100
We’re going to talk a little bit
about reporting because not

71
00:05:23,100 –> 00:05:28,200
reporting is almost as much a
problem as the abuse itself.

72
00:05:29,800 –> 00:05:35,100
One perpetrator can have as many
as 300 victims in a lifetime.

73
00:05:36,000 –> 00:05:38,700
We kind of have a sense of that
in the news.

74
00:05:38,700 –> 00:05:40,700
These are things.
We don’t want to think about.

75
00:05:40,900 –> 00:05:43,400
So we’re going to put all this
into a scriptural context and

76
00:05:43,400 –> 00:05:46,800
think about it in.
From the Vantage of God’s

77
00:05:46,800 –> 00:05:52,500
perspective because there’s
always an advantage in God’s

78
00:05:52,600 –> 00:05:58,500
perspective.
We know a sister who suffered

79
00:05:58,500 –> 00:06:01,900
from decades, literally from
Decades of unrelenting peace.

80
00:06:01,900 –> 00:06:03,700
And she’s not the only one and
Ecclesia.

81
00:06:03,900 –> 00:06:06,400
I was shocked one time there was
an old, this is just an example

82
00:06:06,400 –> 00:06:09,200
as an aside, there’s an old
older sister who had been

83
00:06:09,200 –> 00:06:11,100
widowed for many years in her
life.

84
00:06:11,700 –> 00:06:14,300
She lived to be, I think a
hundred years old.

85
00:06:14,700 –> 00:06:19,600
But sometime around time, she
was in her late, 70s or 80s.

86
00:06:20,700 –> 00:06:22,900
She got upset over something
that had happened.

87
00:06:22,900 –> 00:06:25,000
It was not relevant to anything
that we would.

88
00:06:25,000 –> 00:06:30,700
We would need to About here.
But she told me in the emotion

89
00:06:30,700 –> 00:06:33,700
of the moment, she said I was on
the floor on my hands and knees,

90
00:06:33,700 –> 00:06:35,500
and my husband had a gun to my
head.

91
00:06:35,500 –> 00:06:39,300
So don’t Don’t tell me about
that.

92
00:06:39,800 –> 00:06:43,600
And, and when you hear someone
say something like that, you

93
00:06:43,608 –> 00:06:46,600
don’t appreciate really what
they must have actually gone

94
00:06:46,600 –> 00:06:48,800
through when that happened in a
situation.

95
00:06:51,100 –> 00:06:53,800
So speaking, now that was just
an aside.

96
00:06:53,800 –> 00:06:57,900
Speaking of the sister whose
testimony is in this part, she

97
00:06:57,900 –> 00:07:00,700
went through Decades of
unrelenting abuse and we didn’t

98
00:07:00,700 –> 00:07:03,500
know about it, we used to say
that she was only happy if she’s

99
00:07:03,500 –> 00:07:05,900
miserable and we had no idea
what was making her so

100
00:07:05,900 –> 00:07:07,300
miserable.
I don’t know.

101
00:07:07,500 –> 00:07:12,300
India until her husband moved
into our Ecclesia as a baptized

102
00:07:12,300 –> 00:07:16,700
member and spent eight years.
They’re using the Ecclesia as a

103
00:07:16,700 –> 00:07:18,800
cover for his abuse.
And because he was in our

104
00:07:18,800 –> 00:07:20,800
equation because
christadelphians are so close in

105
00:07:20,800 –> 00:07:24,200
it.
We kind of found out about this

106
00:07:24,700 –> 00:07:28,600
in somewhere around fifth year
for the next three years.

107
00:07:28,600 –> 00:07:31,700
Tried to work with it.
We had been working with their

108
00:07:31,700 –> 00:07:33,900
marriage and all kinds of
different ways for the whole

109
00:07:33,900 –> 00:07:36,200
eight year period.
He was in there came in in a

110
00:07:36,207 –> 00:07:40,800
marital crisis.
And left and a mirror crisis but

111
00:07:40,800 –> 00:07:46,000
it was a really prevailing
problem and it consumed

112
00:07:46,000 –> 00:07:51,000
practically the entire equation,
particularly consumed our lives

113
00:07:51,000 –> 00:07:53,400
on the arranging board and
sister Jean and I as we got

114
00:07:53,400 –> 00:07:58,100
closer and closer to his family
and discovered more and more and

115
00:07:58,100 –> 00:08:02,900
more about what was under the
surface, being glossed over with

116
00:08:02,900 –> 00:08:08,300
guys of spiritual.
Spirituality.

117
00:08:10,500 –> 00:08:12,500
This is a brief description of
much more.

118
00:08:12,500 –> 00:08:15,300
There’s much more actually on
the website that you can go and

119
00:08:15,300 –> 00:08:19,200
read everything she that you
might want to hit would be a

120
00:08:19,200 –> 00:08:22,500
value to you if you wanted to
identify the kinds of things

121
00:08:22,500 –> 00:08:24,700
that people going through,
because you have a suspicion

122
00:08:24,700 –> 00:08:27,200
that something’s going on.
It’s someone’s life that, you

123
00:08:27,200 –> 00:08:30,100
know, otherwise you probably
don’t want to read any anything

124
00:08:30,100 –> 00:08:31,700
about this, but this is what she
says.

125
00:08:32,299 –> 00:08:34,000
About her Terror and her
exhaustion.

126
00:08:34,400 –> 00:08:38,500
My body is really giving out.
It’s a simple statement but it’s

127
00:08:38,500 –> 00:08:40,400
not an understatement in her
case.

128
00:08:40,400 –> 00:08:42,799
It’s getting harder for me even
to work though.

129
00:08:42,799 –> 00:08:45,900
I know that I have to what her
husband had done to her among

130
00:08:45,900 –> 00:08:49,000
many other things and her
children is, he had consigned

131
00:08:49,000 –> 00:08:53,400
her to a life of work where he
wouldn’t pay the bills.

132
00:08:53,400 –> 00:08:56,900
Because he knew that if he
forced her to work as a cleaning

133
00:08:57,100 –> 00:09:00,500
person in people’s homes that
she would bring enough income

134
00:09:00,500 –> 00:09:03,700
home to defray the burden that
he, otherwise would have to

135
00:09:03,708 –> 00:09:06,700
spend his money on.
He kept his money in the dark

136
00:09:06,700 –> 00:09:11,100
and the Background and it just
consigned her to a life of

137
00:09:11,400 –> 00:09:16,500
enslaved her to hard labor.
My physical body may not be able

138
00:09:16,500 –> 00:09:18,700
to handle it right.
Now, if the work comes, I will

139
00:09:18,700 –> 00:09:21,400
certainly do it.
Somehow all these years of abuse

140
00:09:21,400 –> 00:09:24,600
affected me mentally, but now is
affecting me physically.

141
00:09:24,700 –> 00:09:27,300
The stress is just making me
feel so very drained.

142
00:09:27,900 –> 00:09:31,100
This evil man has got to be
stopped before he kills me and

143
00:09:31,100 –> 00:09:32,900
my kids.
That’s the part that’s

144
00:09:32,900 –> 00:09:36,600
highlighted in the section
because everyone in his family

145
00:09:36,600 –> 00:09:38,600
thought that he would eventually
kill them.

146
00:09:39,300 –> 00:09:42,100
So the other among the other
things that he did was he

147
00:09:42,100 –> 00:09:47,700
suspended the family in Austin
fear of physical harm, he never

148
00:09:47,700 –> 00:09:50,300
really followed through with it.
But every made everyone in the

149
00:09:50,300 –> 00:09:53,800
family certain that he was
capable of it and all but

150
00:09:53,800 –> 00:09:57,300
promised it by his behavior and
his tone, the things he would

151
00:09:57,300 –> 00:10:00,700
say to people.
He also had a collection of guns

152
00:10:00,700 –> 00:10:02,700
so that made it all the more
believable.

153
00:10:04,600 –> 00:10:07,000
So this raises a question, I’m
going to go too far into what

154
00:10:07,000 –> 00:10:09,000
she suffered.
Maybe that’s sufficient to say

155
00:10:09,000 –> 00:10:11,500
it was decades of time.
We got very close to it.

156
00:10:11,500 –> 00:10:15,900
It it overwhelmed our lives in
To extricate her from this

157
00:10:15,900 –> 00:10:18,600
condition.
But then we started thinking

158
00:10:18,600 –> 00:10:20,800
about all the factors that are
involved, some of them are

159
00:10:20,800 –> 00:10:24,000
practical, many of them are
scriptural, and some of them are

160
00:10:24,000 –> 00:10:26,200
ecclesial.
So I’m going to go through a

161
00:10:26,200 –> 00:10:31,600
series of components in this
particular part that will deal

162
00:10:31,600 –> 00:10:33,200
with each of those
considerations in.

163
00:10:33,200 –> 00:10:37,200
The first, big question is with
women who suffer from abusive

164
00:10:37,200 –> 00:10:40,600
husbands and the focus here is
on men who are abusive, there

165
00:10:40,600 –> 00:10:43,400
are women these days that are
just as abusive, but this

166
00:10:43,400 –> 00:10:46,000
particular segment, On these
were men.

167
00:10:46,000 –> 00:10:48,800
And so the question is, why
women stay with a man who is

168
00:10:48,800 –> 00:10:52,700
abusive and we go down this
list, you’ll see why they do and

169
00:10:52,700 –> 00:10:55,300
how this could even fit into the
Matrix of a christadelphians,

170
00:10:55,300 –> 00:11:00,400
Ecclesia, because of the threats
to harm the victims of the loved

171
00:11:00,400 –> 00:11:02,300
ones of the pets.
In this case, there was a pet

172
00:11:02,300 –> 00:11:05,600
and the threat was always there
to harm any of these are so

173
00:11:05,600 –> 00:11:08,000
real.
That the family, the woman is

174
00:11:08,000 –> 00:11:10,600
literally suspended in fear,
she’s Frozen, she can’t do

175
00:11:10,600 –> 00:11:12,500
anything because she knows that
she does.

176
00:11:12,600 –> 00:11:14,000
Someone else is going to pay the
price.

177
00:11:14,000 –> 00:11:18,300
So, It’s sort of like the kids
and the pets become hostages for

178
00:11:18,500 –> 00:11:24,600
his for her her secrecy, there
are threats of suicide or

179
00:11:24,600 –> 00:11:26,400
attempts.
So if there’s a threat of

180
00:11:26,400 –> 00:11:30,100
suicide you don’t want to kill
somebody who’s abusive to you

181
00:11:30,700 –> 00:11:32,900
who says he’ll kill himself if
you tell.

182
00:11:33,700 –> 00:11:36,600
So you know there’s its it gets
into a very confused set of

183
00:11:36,608 –> 00:11:39,700
emotions and feelings.
They be.

184
00:11:39,900 –> 00:11:42,500
They believe that the abuser
will actually take their

185
00:11:42,500 –> 00:11:45,000
children from them and if you’re
a mother Children of the most

186
00:11:45,000 –> 00:11:49,400
important thing in your life as
a mother and the thought of

187
00:11:49,400 –> 00:11:53,000
someone, especially an abuser,
taking them from you, and

188
00:11:53,000 –> 00:11:58,200
subjecting them to his full
control is unimaginable to a

189
00:11:58,208 –> 00:12:02,300
woman.
And so this restrains, her there

190
00:12:02,300 –> 00:12:05,300
are religious reasons and think
of how this would play out in a

191
00:12:05,308 –> 00:12:08,900
collegial life in the truth.
If we know that God said, he

192
00:12:08,900 –> 00:12:12,900
hates divorce and if the only
way you can extricate yourself

193
00:12:12,900 –> 00:12:18,200
from an abusive, Of condition is
to divorce them or two separate.

194
00:12:18,400 –> 00:12:21,400
Sometimes these things will
bother the religious side of

195
00:12:21,400 –> 00:12:24,300
your conscience.
Believe in the abuser will

196
00:12:24,300 –> 00:12:27,900
change.
As promised, but never kept in.

197
00:12:27,900 –> 00:12:31,100
This is a constant theme with
people with men who are abusive,

198
00:12:31,100 –> 00:12:33,400
they promised change, they come
back to you with tears, they’re

199
00:12:33,400 –> 00:12:35,600
sorry.
But it happens over and over

200
00:12:35,600 –> 00:12:36,700
again.
How many movies, how many

201
00:12:36,700 –> 00:12:38,900
stories?
I mean, even magazine articles

202
00:12:39,100 –> 00:12:43,500
point this out, this is classic
their self playing.

203
00:12:43,500 –> 00:12:47,500
And this is something that this
particular sister had grown in

204
00:12:47,600 –> 00:12:51,600
up in, in her family where it
over these three decades from

205
00:12:51,600 –> 00:12:55,800
her early youth to the time.
This was finally finally ended

206
00:12:55,800 –> 00:13:00,400
for her.
She blamed herself because the

207
00:13:00,400 –> 00:13:03,900
abuse involved, mental, and
emotional accusation.

208
00:13:03,900 –> 00:13:06,900
That was so pervasive in her
mind, it literally brain

209
00:13:08,100 –> 00:13:12,900
brainwashed, her into believing
that she was the reason that he

210
00:13:12,900 –> 00:13:16,500
had to treat her that way.
So, self-blame keeps women from

211
00:13:16,500 –> 00:13:19,900
leaving, they have limited
Financial options.

212
00:13:19,900 –> 00:13:22,200
This is certainly true.
In the case, in our Ecclesia,

213
00:13:22,900 –> 00:13:25,000
she couldn’t really.
She never really thought she

214
00:13:25,000 –> 00:13:26,400
could support herself.
She’s make enough.

215
00:13:26,700 –> 00:13:29,900
In a month to pay the mortgage,
while he used that money for his

216
00:13:29,900 –> 00:13:34,100
own escapades elsewhere,
believing that violence or

217
00:13:34,100 –> 00:13:36,400
conflict is normal?
What happens in some of these

218
00:13:36,400 –> 00:13:40,300
families is the violence is, so,
constant and pervasive in the

219
00:13:40,300 –> 00:13:42,200
family that it becomes normal
for them.

220
00:13:44,200 –> 00:13:47,100
It’s hard for us to imagine
those of us who live in peaceful

221
00:13:47,400 –> 00:13:51,500
lives, where the characters are
driven by spiritual principles

222
00:13:51,500 –> 00:13:54,500
to imagine something getting
this bad inside a home, but you

223
00:13:54,508 –> 00:14:00,800
can imagine if it’s as pervasive
as As the statistics show, how

224
00:14:01,000 –> 00:14:06,100
how, what grief there is in
heaven, in the purview of all

225
00:14:06,100 –> 00:14:08,500
households in America, say
nothing of the countries and

226
00:14:08,500 –> 00:14:12,300
Facilities, where there’s abuse
on a higher level where the god

227
00:14:12,300 –> 00:14:15,200
of love watches.
This miserable torture of

228
00:14:15,200 –> 00:14:19,800
merciless torture inside, homes
believing the sanctity of

229
00:14:19,800 –> 00:14:23,100
marriage and the family also is
another reason why when it is

230
00:14:23,108 –> 00:14:26,400
day they have limited or no
housing options.

231
00:14:26,600 –> 00:14:30,600
And and housing options that are
provided by the city of a state.

232
00:14:30,800 –> 00:14:35,700
Don’t seem to be adequate.
A lot of times they can, they

233
00:14:35,700 –> 00:14:38,300
can find other reasons to
explain the abuse.

234
00:14:38,300 –> 00:14:41,500
They blame it on something else
or alcohol or finances.

235
00:14:42,300 –> 00:14:43,700
They have a very low
self-esteem.

236
00:14:43,700 –> 00:14:46,700
That’s usually the kind of woman
that ends up in an abusive

237
00:14:46,900 –> 00:14:51,400
situation, the fear of the
unknown or change is enormous,

238
00:14:51,400 –> 00:14:54,100
because changing all change
involved, lost someone once

239
00:14:54,100 –> 00:14:58,600
said, so they can see them
losing everything in their life,

240
00:14:58,600 –> 00:15:01,400
in their, in their accumulated
surroundings and the props of

241
00:15:01,400 –> 00:15:03,700
their life and the little things
in there.

242
00:15:04,000 –> 00:15:07,000
That have that are
representations of deeper

243
00:15:07,000 –> 00:15:13,800
meanings all that appears to be
lost in the change or a fear of

244
00:15:13,800 –> 00:15:15,700
isolation.
They don’t know what will happen

245
00:15:15,900 –> 00:15:20,300
if they live in a strict
Ecclesia and a divorce results

246
00:15:20,300 –> 00:15:23,300
in some form of isolation.
There’s that fear.

247
00:15:24,000 –> 00:15:26,100
There’s a fear of being
isolated, simply by the

248
00:15:26,100 –> 00:15:28,900
circumstance, embarrass me and
shames.

249
00:15:28,900 –> 00:15:31,900
Another reason, women don’t
leave, believing, no one can

250
00:15:31,900 –> 00:15:33,700
help and this is a very deep
seated.

251
00:15:33,800 –> 00:15:36,100
Belief because they’ve lived in
it for so long.

252
00:15:36,100 –> 00:15:39,000
There never has been any help,
they become convinced that help

253
00:15:39,000 –> 00:15:42,300
is not available.
There are cultural beliefs,

254
00:15:42,300 –> 00:15:44,800
there’s denial and there’s
pressure from friends and family

255
00:15:44,800 –> 00:15:47,200
to stay.
There’s economic dependence and

256
00:15:47,200 –> 00:15:51,000
there’s also this very strange
irony that.

257
00:15:51,000 –> 00:15:54,800
She she still loves him.
She feels like she loves him

258
00:15:54,800 –> 00:15:56,600
even though he treats her like
this.

259
00:15:57,100 –> 00:16:01,600
Very pervasive condition in the
pity of these women’s lives.

260
00:16:02,300 –> 00:16:05,500
So in this particular sister’s
case, the only way she could

261
00:16:05,500 –> 00:16:09,400
cope is in the comfort that was
provided to her from her faith.

262
00:16:10,000 –> 00:16:13,000
And there are many different
ways in which that Comfort came

263
00:16:13,000 –> 00:16:15,000
to her.
She would listen to tapes of

264
00:16:15,000 –> 00:16:17,300
Chrissa Delphine talk.
So if you’re a speaker and you

265
00:16:17,300 –> 00:16:19,900
speak about these things and
there’s a woman out there who’s

266
00:16:19,900 –> 00:16:23,000
suffering like this and she
picks up your talk that will

267
00:16:23,000 –> 00:16:26,700
come into her life as a comfort.
She’s very close to her Bible

268
00:16:26,700 –> 00:16:29,600
and did an amazing job of
raising her children in spite of

269
00:16:29,600 –> 00:16:34,400
the circumstances and stayed
very Very close to the

270
00:16:34,400 –> 00:16:38,400
scriptures and they came into
her mind and constructed, an

271
00:16:38,400 –> 00:16:41,500
anchor of comfort.
The Ecclesia was another form of

272
00:16:41,500 –> 00:16:44,500
comfort Chiefs.
She came assiduously every

273
00:16:44,500 –> 00:16:47,100
Sunday, she came to, as many
classes, she could get out to

274
00:16:47,400 –> 00:16:52,000
not too many in that case but
the exhortations and the the

275
00:16:52,000 –> 00:16:55,800
sympathies and the hugs and
kisses and the arms around her

276
00:16:56,000 –> 00:16:59,800
all provided her, with some
measure of comfort that comes

277
00:16:59,800 –> 00:17:01,600
from the hand of Christ as it
treats.

278
00:17:02,100 –> 00:17:05,900
Those whom he touches through
the contact with brothers and

279
00:17:05,900 –> 00:17:09,000
sisters.
This is what she said.

280
00:17:09,099 –> 00:17:13,400
In all of that I’ve been in the
truth since I was 15 years old,

281
00:17:13,400 –> 00:17:17,800
but I’ve never really seen and
felt felt it until the worst

282
00:17:17,800 –> 00:17:21,000
adversity in my life.
And this is that wonderful

283
00:17:21,000 –> 00:17:25,700
Paradox that were speaking about
in this whole series of comfort

284
00:17:25,700 –> 00:17:30,100
being manifested in Affliction
as a result of an in contrast to

285
00:17:30,400 –> 00:17:35,000
affliction.
So she says, once I put complete

286
00:17:35,000 –> 00:17:39,200
trust in God, you know there was
no arm of Flesh, it failed or

287
00:17:39,200 –> 00:17:43,200
pressure and gave him the
steering wheel of my life.

288
00:17:43,200 –> 00:17:46,600
Then and only then could I have
peace within so how in this

289
00:17:46,600 –> 00:17:49,000
circumstance and she’s been
desperate.

290
00:17:49,000 –> 00:17:51,600
Almost as long as we’ve known
her, how could she find peace

291
00:17:51,600 –> 00:17:57,200
within unless you can actually
use the knowledge of God instead

292
00:17:57,200 –> 00:17:59,700
of the knowledge of Good and
Evil which was the prevalent

293
00:17:59,700 –> 00:18:02,900
knowledge of Herbalife.
Use the knowledge of God to

294
00:18:02,900 –> 00:18:06,100
bring that piece into your
thinking that then becomes the

295
00:18:06,100 –> 00:18:10,300
source of comfort and peace.
I know that God knows where we

296
00:18:10,300 –> 00:18:13,800
were going and how to get there.
This adversity has been too hard

297
00:18:13,800 –> 00:18:17,200
for me to physically mentally
and spiritually, handle alone.

298
00:18:17,200 –> 00:18:19,100
In that is not an
understatement.

299
00:18:19,100 –> 00:18:23,600
In every aspect of what she’s
describing their physical mental

300
00:18:24,100 –> 00:18:26,000
spiritual, she could have added
emotional.

301
00:18:26,200 –> 00:18:29,200
It’s been too difficult for her
to manage alone.

302
00:18:29,800 –> 00:18:33,900
So she but she wasn’t alone and
she had she had a group of

303
00:18:33,900 –> 00:18:37,200
believers who are around her
gradually becoming more and more

304
00:18:37,200 –> 00:18:40,800
aware of this and who were
supplying, the kind of support

305
00:18:40,800 –> 00:18:43,100
he needed.
And friends, she had friends who

306
00:18:43,100 –> 00:18:46,700
were themselves wives of abusive
conditions in their marriage and

307
00:18:46,700 –> 00:18:51,200
they came to her rescue.
Once I completely gave him that

308
00:18:51,200 –> 00:18:54,700
his God, the wheel then.
So many blessings started to

309
00:18:54,700 –> 00:18:58,500
happen.
Two years later when I updated

310
00:18:58,500 –> 00:19:01,400
this last fall.
She said the storms are settling

311
00:19:01,400 –> 00:19:03,200
down.
Now this is because the scoffer

312
00:19:03,200 –> 00:19:06,300
was driven out of the Ecclesia.
There’s a we’re going to see

313
00:19:06,300 –> 00:19:11,500
this later on in a verse drive,
a scoffer out and abuse will

314
00:19:11,500 –> 00:19:14,000
cease.
We drove them out of the

315
00:19:14,000 –> 00:19:17,800
Ecclesia.
And by effect, she drove him out

316
00:19:17,800 –> 00:19:22,300
of circumstances.
Drove him away from her, which

317
00:19:22,300 –> 00:19:24,200
gave her a bit of a rescue the
storm.

318
00:19:24,200 –> 00:19:28,000
So she says, the storms are
settling now and in the most

319
00:19:28,000 –> 00:19:31,500
wonderful way.
Once she was a cleaning lady for

320
00:19:31,500 –> 00:19:36,200
these people and they had a
house available because the

321
00:19:36,400 –> 00:19:40,000
woman that was was getting old
and who she cared for in her

322
00:19:40,000 –> 00:19:42,700
cleaning.
Could no longer sustain herself,

323
00:19:42,700 –> 00:19:44,400
manage her own life and her
house alone.

324
00:19:44,400 –> 00:19:46,900
So, this is the daughter and son
brought her in.

325
00:19:46,900 –> 00:19:50,400
They happen to be very loving,
kind religious people and they

326
00:19:50,400 –> 00:19:53,900
had mercy on this woman gave her
a place to live her and her

327
00:19:53,900 –> 00:19:57,100
daughter.
So it was a Deliverance that was

328
00:19:57,200 –> 00:20:00,400
supplied.
We saw this, it was Like by the

329
00:20:00,400 –> 00:20:03,800
Lord.
Should the spirit as it operated

330
00:20:03,800 –> 00:20:08,300
in the minds of several people
who weren’t even in the truth.

331
00:20:08,700 –> 00:20:13,500
But so penetrating was the
spirit of Christ in this world

332
00:20:13,500 –> 00:20:17,200
that he had enough of an effect
on their hearts to provide a

333
00:20:17,200 –> 00:20:20,300
place for this woman to live and
it’s actually a bit nicer than

334
00:20:20,300 –> 00:20:22,900
the place.
She was living in that she had

335
00:20:22,900 –> 00:20:25,600
to leave.
So she says the storms have been

336
00:20:25,600 –> 00:20:29,200
extremely heavy but they’ve
taught me and my family to truly

337
00:20:29,200 –> 00:20:31,200
rely totally and completely on
God.

338
00:20:31,700 –> 00:20:34,500
They taught us to be patient.
No matter what they taught me to

339
00:20:34,500 –> 00:20:36,400
pray.
Like I’ve never prayed before

340
00:20:36,700 –> 00:20:39,000
truly am.
So very blessed and thankful for

341
00:20:39,000 –> 00:20:42,700
our God, that has never ever
left my side through these heavy

342
00:20:42,700 –> 00:20:45,300
storms.
But instead been with me with

343
00:20:45,300 –> 00:20:49,100
his arms around me and my family
the entire time, how could a

344
00:20:49,100 –> 00:20:52,800
woman Conger, that kind of
thought, unless she understood

345
00:20:52,800 –> 00:20:55,700
it to be true in her life.
And that is in every sigh that

346
00:20:55,700 –> 00:20:58,400
God gives us providentially.
All the anchors of strength that

347
00:20:58,400 –> 00:21:02,800
he provides by his word.
Don’t ever give up, but keep

348
00:21:02,800 –> 00:21:05,500
trusting believing in pray
without ceasing.

349
00:21:05,500 –> 00:21:09,000
God loves us all so much and he
will guide you through every

350
00:21:09,000 –> 00:21:10,600
storm.
You are going through now.

351
00:21:10,600 –> 00:21:15,300
And in the future, when I asked
her, what is the verse that

352
00:21:15,300 –> 00:21:16,700
anchors?
Your hope?

353
00:21:16,900 –> 00:21:20,400
She said this and we know that
all things.

354
00:21:20,800 –> 00:21:22,800
Imagine it’s what are all things
in her life?

355
00:21:24,200 –> 00:21:27,300
Jack threatened with violence
being yelled at being denigrated

356
00:21:27,300 –> 00:21:29,400
being belittled to the point
where you feel worthless,

357
00:21:29,600 –> 00:21:31,800
scaring your children, to
believe that it’s normal for

358
00:21:31,800 –> 00:21:34,300
them to expect to be killed to
be murdered.

359
00:21:34,900 –> 00:21:37,200
These are all the things that
she said.

360
00:21:37,200 –> 00:21:42,700
Work together for good.
For good, what?

361
00:21:42,700 –> 00:21:48,200
Good good in the form of the
direct intimate, knowledge of

362
00:21:48,200 –> 00:21:50,500
the hope that God sets before
us?

363
00:21:50,800 –> 00:21:53,800
That’s the good.
It’s in the strength to endure.

364
00:21:54,700 –> 00:21:57,400
We love God and those who are
called, according to his

365
00:21:57,400 –> 00:22:01,900
purpose.
So God’s response in a condition

366
00:22:01,900 –> 00:22:04,300
like this, in an abusive
condition.

367
00:22:04,300 –> 00:22:08,000
Is General sweeps, the entire
human race and all of its

368
00:22:09,100 –> 00:22:13,100
dispensations as one whom his
mother comforts.

369
00:22:14,900 –> 00:22:19,300
So, I will comfort you.
And once again, what does God

370
00:22:19,300 –> 00:22:21,500
do?
He ties it to the promise of

371
00:22:21,500 –> 00:22:26,000
Abraham, the promise of language
Promised Land Throne of Christ,

372
00:22:26,000 –> 00:22:29,600
and to that area of land, which
will be the capital of This

373
00:22:29,600 –> 00:22:32,300
World In His Kingdom.
So I will comfort.

374
00:22:32,300 –> 00:22:35,100
You you shall be comforted in
Jerusalem.

375
00:22:35,700 –> 00:22:38,100
It’s got a very clear about the
Comfort.

376
00:22:38,100 –> 00:22:41,900
He offers, it’s a comfort that
he will provide when he redeems

377
00:22:41,900 –> 00:22:44,700
Jerusalem and when Jerusalem is
redeemed, the world will be

378
00:22:44,700 –> 00:22:48,700
redeemed.
So in all this experience, the

379
00:22:48,700 –> 00:22:51,200
Norfolk Rafflesia came up with a
policy.

380
00:22:51,200 –> 00:22:54,200
The reason we came up with the
policy is what I mentioned

381
00:22:54,200 –> 00:22:56,600
earlier.
Reporting is part of the problem

382
00:22:56,800 –> 00:22:58,800
and to Serious part of the
problem not recording.

383
00:22:58,800 –> 00:23:01,400
That’s why people are arrested
and they go to jail for not

384
00:23:01,400 –> 00:23:02,900
reporting.
That’s the issue.

385
00:23:02,900 –> 00:23:05,600
They have the Catholic church
right now that they don’t think

386
00:23:05,600 –> 00:23:07,200
there’s been enough reporting
going on.

387
00:23:07,200 –> 00:23:12,700
And so the abuse gets to convey
gets continued in Virginia.

388
00:23:12,700 –> 00:23:14,700
There’s only three states left
at the time.

389
00:23:14,700 –> 00:23:17,200
We looked into this, I think
Four states.

390
00:23:17,300 –> 00:23:20,900
And I’ve recently been told that
there are three states left now

391
00:23:20,900 –> 00:23:26,100
that do not have a law, that
mandates church leaders and

392
00:23:26,100 –> 00:23:30,300
Elders to report when they have
Reasonable Suspicion of abuse,

393
00:23:30,500 –> 00:23:33,200
that’s a very serious problem.
You can know why it’s a law in

394
00:23:33,200 –> 00:23:37,200
so many states, Virginia, the
state that we live in does not

395
00:23:37,200 –> 00:23:39,200
have a law that mandates church
leaders.

396
00:23:39,200 –> 00:23:42,500
So we spoke to a lot of people
about this, in the course, of

397
00:23:42,500 –> 00:23:45,600
our involvement with it, and we
were told it would be a good

398
00:23:45,600 –> 00:23:48,800
idea for You to develop a policy
since you live in a state where

399
00:23:48,800 –> 00:23:52,000
it’s not mandated by law,
develop a policy, where the

400
00:23:52,000 –> 00:23:55,900
church mandates itself, its own
leaders to report when there is

401
00:23:55,900 –> 00:23:58,200
reasonable, Reasonable Suspicion
of abuse.

402
00:24:00,900 –> 00:24:03,500
It’s this serious.
In God’s eyes, whoever causes

403
00:24:03,500 –> 00:24:07,200
one of these little ones to who
believe in me to stumble, it

404
00:24:07,200 –> 00:24:09,600
would be better for him if a
millstone were hung around his

405
00:24:09,600 –> 00:24:14,600
neck and he were thrown into the
sea, this is the kind of offense

406
00:24:14,600 –> 00:24:18,800
that abuse is when there’s a
selfish father and a Donna

407
00:24:18,800 –> 00:24:24,000
narcissistic man in the family.
It’s a millstone level offense.

408
00:24:24,000 –> 00:24:27,600
What he does to the children.
That man is a brother and he’s

409
00:24:27,600 –> 00:24:31,500
not being reported.
This needs to be uncovered and

410
00:24:31,500 –> 00:24:33,600
dealt with, and the Ecclesia is
not.

411
00:24:33,600 –> 00:24:36,400
The equation has rolled do it,
but it is the equations role to

412
00:24:36,400 –> 00:24:38,300
report it.
If you can do something about it

413
00:24:38,300 –> 00:24:43,000
within without going to the
judges of the world, then Paul’s

414
00:24:43,000 –> 00:24:46,100
advice is to do that because he
says to the Corinthian Ecclesia,

415
00:24:46,100 –> 00:24:48,700
you need to judge these things
internally but where you can’t

416
00:24:48,700 –> 00:24:51,400
do that.
It’s necessary to report.

417
00:24:51,400 –> 00:24:54,600
So we The policy and I’m going
to introduce some aspects of the

418
00:24:54,600 –> 00:24:56,000
policy.
It’s a little big.

419
00:24:56,000 –> 00:24:59,000
So we don’t have time to do it
in the confines of this part.

420
00:24:59,800 –> 00:25:02,400
But this is a is was entitled in
Norfolk.

421
00:25:02,400 –> 00:25:05,500
Collegiate policy was passed in
a special meeting on Family

422
00:25:05,500 –> 00:25:08,900
Services pertaining to abuse and
exploitation, which is read the

423
00:25:08,900 –> 00:25:11,400
first paragraph of it.
So you get an idea of what this

424
00:25:11,400 –> 00:25:13,900
policy does.
Just going to say upfront, this

425
00:25:13,900 –> 00:25:18,100
policy is available on the
internet for you to copy and

426
00:25:18,100 –> 00:25:20,100
download in your Collegiate.
If you feel like you’d like to

427
00:25:20,100 –> 00:25:23,000
take the step if you if you have
dealt with this in the past and

428
00:25:23,000 –> 00:25:25,600
though you may deal with in the
future you can download this and

429
00:25:25,600 –> 00:25:29,300
use this as a template for
whatever policy you want to

430
00:25:29,300 –> 00:25:32,500
write and we did it deliberately
with that in mind not only just

431
00:25:32,500 –> 00:25:36,400
for the benefit of our Affairs
in the Ecclesia.

432
00:25:37,300 –> 00:25:40,400
Why the occlusion needs a policy
on this subject?

433
00:25:41,400 –> 00:25:43,900
The creation of this policy
stems from how our having

434
00:25:43,900 –> 00:25:46,400
officially opened the counseling
services for the Norfolk

435
00:25:46,400 –> 00:25:49,500
Ecclesia, in which, our members
are financially supported to

436
00:25:49,500 –> 00:25:52,800
receive qualified counseling for
a specific. a period of time

437
00:25:52,800 –> 00:25:55,400
where their trials are beyond
the scope and ability of our own

438
00:25:55,400 –> 00:25:59,500
members to provide sufficient
resources, for help, In other,

439
00:25:59,500 –> 00:26:03,200
in any other case, we’ve got all
the resources that we have in a

440
00:26:03,200 –> 00:26:06,600
collegial life that we have as
individuals in the particulars

441
00:26:06,600 –> 00:26:10,600
in that Ecclesia.
But there’s a limit this is when

442
00:26:10,600 –> 00:26:15,200
that limit is exceeded, we
acknowledge that brothers and

443
00:26:15,200 –> 00:26:17,800
sisters are subject to the same
proclivity to send is All

444
00:26:17,800 –> 00:26:19,800
Mankind.
And provision should be made to

445
00:26:19,800 –> 00:26:22,500
Aid victims of abuse and
exploitation, recognizing that

446
00:26:22,500 –> 00:26:27,000
this abuse could come from
outside or, from within the

447
00:26:27,000 –> 00:26:29,800
body.
And I don’t need to go far past

448
00:26:29,800 –> 00:26:33,200
that point to remind you that we
know of cases, where this is in

449
00:26:33,200 –> 00:26:36,500
the body.
This is an overview and I was

450
00:26:36,500 –> 00:26:39,400
going to bolt these off, it has
an introduction, it defines

451
00:26:39,400 –> 00:26:42,100
abuse.
Obviously it has gives a list of

452
00:26:42,100 –> 00:26:44,200
relevant.
Scriptures it Goes with the

453
00:26:44,200 –> 00:26:48,000
state’s laws are including signs
of recording, and I’m going to

454
00:26:48,000 –> 00:26:50,100
add right here.
All this is meant to have a

455
00:26:50,108 –> 00:26:53,600
practical basis of dealing with
this, when it is otherwise.

456
00:26:53,600 –> 00:26:59,400
So, so sort of unreachable,
especially in protecting of the

457
00:26:59,400 –> 00:27:01,600
sanctity of a family and a
family organization.

458
00:27:02,400 –> 00:27:04,700
We have a victim, first
priority, I would love to talk

459
00:27:04,700 –> 00:27:06,300
to you about that.
And if you want to know what

460
00:27:06,300 –> 00:27:10,500
that means, we can take that up
in a later conversation.

461
00:27:11,700 –> 00:27:14,800
Reasonable Suspicion is as
Opposed to proof.

462
00:27:14,800 –> 00:27:17,700
We need to explain what that is
because a lot of people think

463
00:27:17,700 –> 00:27:20,600
that if you have a suspicion you
can’t use it because we’re not

464
00:27:20,600 –> 00:27:22,600
supposed to be supposed
scripturally.

465
00:27:22,600 –> 00:27:25,500
Speaking we’re not supposed to
be suspicious of one another but

466
00:27:25,700 –> 00:27:28,400
reasonable suspicious is a
different suspicion is a

467
00:27:28,400 –> 00:27:31,100
different thing.
It’s when they’re all kinds of

468
00:27:31,100 –> 00:27:32,800
things that are wrong, you know,
something’s wrong.

469
00:27:32,800 –> 00:27:34,600
These are the signs that
something’s wrong but you have

470
00:27:34,600 –> 00:27:36,800
no proof.
What’s required in the state

471
00:27:36,800 –> 00:27:40,100
reporting is not proof.
The state then looks for the

472
00:27:40,100 –> 00:27:42,600
evidence and seeks the proof.
While they go.

473
00:27:42,600 –> 00:27:45,300
What they go by.
Nipple suspicion and nobody is

474
00:27:45,300 –> 00:27:47,200
indicted on the basis of
Suspicion.

475
00:27:47,600 –> 00:27:50,600
So all this does is set up a
condition in which people who

476
00:27:50,600 –> 00:27:53,300
have the authority to do.
So can probe deeply into a

477
00:27:53,308 –> 00:27:58,100
family’s life and discover if
there is in fact abuse, there’s

478
00:27:58,100 –> 00:28:00,100
a consequence to Fellowship
obviously.

479
00:28:00,100 –> 00:28:04,600
So we put that in there.
There’s a need to protect people

480
00:28:04,600 –> 00:28:07,900
with whatever conscientious
confidentiality may be involved.

481
00:28:08,900 –> 00:28:12,500
And that’s on the principal in
the Bible of covering and on one

482
00:28:12,500 –> 00:28:15,000
hand, covering sent on the other
hand, exposing sin.

483
00:28:15,000 –> 00:28:17,100
So we do both in a collegial
life.

484
00:28:17,400 –> 00:28:19,800
If your have been on the
arranging board, you know, the

485
00:28:19,800 –> 00:28:23,500
need to cover sins when they
when you become aware of them.

486
00:28:23,800 –> 00:28:26,200
And, you know, the need
sometimes to bring those sins

487
00:28:26,200 –> 00:28:28,100
into some kind of public
awareness.

488
00:28:28,400 –> 00:28:30,600
Although we don’t like to be
judges and we don’t want to be

489
00:28:30,600 –> 00:28:33,500
involved in that.
We all recognize that we are in

490
00:28:33,500 –> 00:28:37,300
training in a collegial life for
a time when we, we judges

491
00:28:37,300 –> 00:28:40,400
worldwide helping create It’s
rule from his throne but being

492
00:28:40,400 –> 00:28:44,100
in all parts of the world in
situations where the experience.

493
00:28:44,100 –> 00:28:47,400
I think we had in principles of
judgment will be applied in that

494
00:28:47,400 –> 00:28:52,300
day, but perfectly applied by
those of us who are brought into

495
00:28:52,300 –> 00:28:55,200
the Royal administration of
Christ’s throne.

496
00:28:56,900 –> 00:29:00,200
Practical restoration and
evidence of change are two

497
00:29:00,200 –> 00:29:03,900
things that become very involved
in this.

498
00:29:04,100 –> 00:29:07,000
If there’s repentance gets
involved, and fellowship is a

499
00:29:07,008 –> 00:29:11,000
question.
I went to, there are five steps

500
00:29:11,000 –> 00:29:14,900
that we developed in this that
show repentance that become

501
00:29:14,900 –> 00:29:18,000
evidence of real repentance.
Instead of just having somebody

502
00:29:18,000 –> 00:29:22,700
with loud crying and Tears.
Like Esau make a repentance that

503
00:29:22,700 –> 00:29:25,100
leads to death instead of one
that leads to life because they

504
00:29:25,100 –> 00:29:28,200
don’t mean it.
The repentance of Esau and the

505
00:29:28,200 –> 00:29:31,200
tears of Esau, and you’ll see
lots of Tears with these sorts

506
00:29:31,200 –> 00:29:35,500
of perpetrators, but we had to
do is figure out how we can

507
00:29:35,500 –> 00:29:37,700
identify what real repentance is
in.

508
00:29:37,700 –> 00:29:41,500
This doesn’t only involve abuse
and involves everything, where a

509
00:29:41,500 –> 00:29:47,700
question of repentance needs to
be determined answered and I’m

510
00:29:47,700 –> 00:29:49,300
going to.
So I’m going to take some just a

511
00:29:49,308 –> 00:29:50,900
few minutes and go over that
with you.

512
00:29:50,900 –> 00:29:54,000
So these are the two things that
we’re going to look at directly

513
00:29:54,500 –> 00:30:00,500
relevant scriptures.
Relating to abuse and Reporting

514
00:30:00,500 –> 00:30:05,900
abuse and the exposure of it and
five steps that identify real

515
00:30:05,900 –> 00:30:09,500
repentance.
This is a very useful tool for

516
00:30:09,500 –> 00:30:14,100
arranging boards and for anyone
women who are older, women who

517
00:30:14,100 –> 00:30:17,900
are canceling, younger people
parents, who are counseling

518
00:30:17,900 –> 00:30:20,200
children.
You want to really identify a

519
00:30:20,200 –> 00:30:22,700
real repentance.
This is how you do it.

520
00:30:22,900 –> 00:30:25,400
So we’ll take a look at that
closely, firstly, the relevant

521
00:30:25,400 –> 00:30:29,200
scriptures.
It’s interesting to note that

522
00:30:29,200 –> 00:30:34,000
when Paul lists in Galatians 5,
The Works of the flesh.

523
00:30:37,100 –> 00:30:40,000
Many of them, if not half of
them, relate to abuse.

524
00:30:41,100 –> 00:30:45,100
When you think about adultery.
So there can be unfaithfulness

525
00:30:45,100 –> 00:30:48,400
that results in abuse or they
could be rampant, repeat

526
00:30:48,400 –> 00:30:51,700
adultery, because that is
concomitant with abused.

527
00:30:52,700 –> 00:30:58,700
uncleanness and all forms part
of a selfish man lascivious –

528
00:30:58,700 –> 00:31:02,900
which is, of course, what
happens when a man begins to be

529
00:31:02,900 –> 00:31:07,600
hostile to the object of his
affections that wife that he

530
00:31:07,600 –> 00:31:10,500
promise to love and honor and
cherish all the days of their

531
00:31:10,500 –> 00:31:16,000
life, lasciviousness turns that
love into hatred and he can be

532
00:31:16,000 –> 00:31:20,200
very cruel to the one he
promised to love variance, which

533
00:31:20,200 –> 00:31:23,500
is constant disagreement in
contention, You know, that the

534
00:31:23,500 –> 00:31:25,800
Bible says women can be
contentious, so men can be

535
00:31:25,800 –> 00:31:29,000
abused by women and families
were contention is the problem

536
00:31:29,100 –> 00:31:33,200
and contention is a form of
abuse, the Bible word for that.

537
00:31:33,200 –> 00:31:36,000
In some cases, in the New
Testament, is the old with older

538
00:31:36,000 –> 00:31:40,500
word is variance and variance.
Just means a variance of view

539
00:31:40,700 –> 00:31:43,800
that turns into an argument
variants and emulation go

540
00:31:43,800 –> 00:31:47,100
hand-in-hand, and I getting that
right now, that’s the next turn,

541
00:31:47,100 –> 00:31:50,900
but wrath and strife.
The Strife is basically an

542
00:31:50,900 –> 00:31:56,000
effect of the Wrath And then
murders and drunkenness and

543
00:31:56,000 –> 00:32:01,100
revellings are also all apart of
global condition of abuse in a

544
00:32:01,100 –> 00:32:03,500
family.
And such like, of which, I tell,

545
00:32:04,000 –> 00:32:07,600
which I tell you before, as I
have told you in time past that

546
00:32:07,600 –> 00:32:11,500
they, which do such things shall
not inherit the kingdom of God.

547
00:32:12,600 –> 00:32:18,000
So the goal, if an abuser in an
Ecclesia is discovered is to

548
00:32:18,000 –> 00:32:20,400
bring him to a state of
restoration.

549
00:32:20,400 –> 00:32:24,000
This is in the context of
restoring somebody who was given

550
00:32:24,000 –> 00:32:27,900
over to fleshly impulses, and
sometimes abusers can be

551
00:32:27,900 –> 00:32:30,200
restored.
So, the goal is that, but if

552
00:32:30,200 –> 00:32:33,300
they can’t, you have to drive an
abuser from you because it’s

553
00:32:33,300 –> 00:32:35,500
only then that the abuse will
cease.

554
00:32:36,300 –> 00:32:40,300
And we all know this subtle
delicate distinction in judgment

555
00:32:40,300 –> 00:32:43,500
that that we labor.
So, Hard to get, right?

556
00:32:43,500 –> 00:32:45,100
And the demands of
righteousness.

557
00:32:45,100 –> 00:32:48,000
When we feel so unrighteousness
in the context of those, the

558
00:32:48,200 –> 00:32:52,900
unrighteous in the context of
those demands, It goes on to say

559
00:32:53,500 –> 00:32:57,900
that the fruit of the spirit and
this is where you find out what

560
00:32:58,200 –> 00:33:01,300
completely dispels, the pasta
the potential for abuse and a

561
00:33:01,300 –> 00:33:04,200
family.
You marry a woman, she should be

562
00:33:04,200 –> 00:33:08,600
a sacred thing to you.
You’ve received the approval of

563
00:33:08,600 –> 00:33:12,200
the Lord for taking you in her
into your care.

564
00:33:12,600 –> 00:33:16,400
You promise to love and honor
and cherish her all the days of

565
00:33:16,400 –> 00:33:19,500
her life.
And then you should as her

566
00:33:19,500 –> 00:33:24,100
spiritual head, bring into your
relationship with her and into

567
00:33:24,100 –> 00:33:28,100
the family.
You should bring love and joy.

568
00:33:29,200 –> 00:33:32,800
And peace.
You should be a person who has

569
00:33:32,800 –> 00:33:35,700
his hand on the thermostat that
controls the temperature in the

570
00:33:35,700 –> 00:33:37,900
room.
When it’s too hot, you cool?

571
00:33:37,900 –> 00:33:41,200
And it wants to cool.
You warm it up and IT Supplies.

572
00:33:41,200 –> 00:33:43,100
The piece that makes everybody
in the family.

573
00:33:43,100 –> 00:33:46,600
Feel secure, instead of scared
to death, that something bad is

574
00:33:46,600 –> 00:33:50,200
going to happen soon.
And long suffering, which means

575
00:33:50,200 –> 00:33:52,700
there’s a lot of patients
involved in gentleness.

576
00:33:52,700 –> 00:33:56,200
Which means not being heavy
handed and harsh with people not

577
00:33:56,200 –> 00:34:00,900
speaking harshly to children and
not The one you love with hard

578
00:34:00,900 –> 00:34:07,700
words and hurtful terms
gentleness is all pervasive in

579
00:34:07,700 –> 00:34:11,699
disposition and tone and speech
and all of us need to learn how

580
00:34:11,699 –> 00:34:14,500
to do this, because it doesn’t
come naturally to us.

581
00:34:14,500 –> 00:34:17,600
We get baptized, we don’t
automatically become gentle.

582
00:34:18,000 –> 00:34:21,400
Men are not gentle just because
they turn boys into adults.

583
00:34:22,199 –> 00:34:25,100
We have to learn how to be
gentle because otherwise we have

584
00:34:25,100 –> 00:34:29,000
a lot of force in our character
and we apply that Force to A

585
00:34:29,007 –> 00:34:31,900
woman.
It can be overexerted, just like

586
00:34:31,900 –> 00:34:33,900
that.
And so gentleness is the thing

587
00:34:33,900 –> 00:34:37,600
which we learn, that offsets all
that, and goodness there should

588
00:34:37,600 –> 00:34:39,800
be goodness in the home.
The father should bring goodness

589
00:34:39,800 –> 00:34:43,900
to his wife and to his children
and faith and meekness and

590
00:34:43,900 –> 00:34:45,600
Temperance.
He should be able to admit when

591
00:34:45,600 –> 00:34:47,600
he’s wrong and not insisted.
He’s always right?

592
00:34:47,600 –> 00:34:51,100
And not, not act, like he,
there’s never anything wrong

593
00:34:51,100 –> 00:34:53,199
with thinking or always be right
in his own eyes.

594
00:34:53,199 –> 00:34:56,100
All these things are fleshly
impulses that destroy marriages

595
00:34:56,100 –> 00:35:01,900
that that all the components of
Use so Brothers, I know you

596
00:35:01,900 –> 00:35:05,400
agree with all this and I know
you would like to practice it.

597
00:35:05,400 –> 00:35:08,800
And I know many of you probably
do in some measure, but the

598
00:35:08,800 –> 00:35:13,900
exhortation is always there for
all of us to temper the flesh to

599
00:35:13,900 –> 00:35:19,500
put the reins on our cells and
and treat the beauty of the love

600
00:35:19,500 –> 00:35:23,300
that are wife offers us in the
self-sacrifice that she brings

601
00:35:23,300 –> 00:35:27,300
into the marriage treat that
with the utmost of care.

602
00:35:27,500 –> 00:35:31,100
It’s sacred God gave it to you
as a gift because he knew it

603
00:35:31,100 –> 00:35:33,600
wasn’t good for you to be alone.
Treat her.

604
00:35:33,600 –> 00:35:35,400
Like you really mean these
things.

605
00:35:36,000 –> 00:35:38,700
And if you need to get better at
it, than do everything in your

606
00:35:38,700 –> 00:35:40,300
power, to make yourself better
at it.

607
00:35:40,300 –> 00:35:43,600
And if that doesn’t work
apologize, at least but don’t

608
00:35:43,600 –> 00:35:46,200
make apology.
The thing that the pattern rules

609
00:35:46,200 –> 00:35:49,000
the day.
Change is the thing that needs

610
00:35:49,000 –> 00:35:52,600
to be made.
In this context, he says against

611
00:35:52,600 –> 00:35:56,700
such, there is no law.
These are the components of a

612
00:35:56,700 –> 00:36:01,700
happy family that is Abuse.
The fruit of the spirit.

613
00:36:01,700 –> 00:36:06,500
It obviates abuse.
That’s the first scripture.

614
00:36:06,500 –> 00:36:10,100
Another scripture is auxiliary
council is actually scripturally

615
00:36:10,100 –> 00:36:13,600
Justified as christadelphians.
We have no confidence in the

616
00:36:13,600 –> 00:36:16,700
wisdom of this world, but there
are certain areas where this

617
00:36:16,700 –> 00:36:21,400
world applies its wisdom to
things that we kind of also

618
00:36:21,400 –> 00:36:25,300
can’t control.
So, in Proverbs 11:14, he says,

619
00:36:25,300 –> 00:36:29,000
where no counsel is the people
fall, but in the multitude, You

620
00:36:29,000 –> 00:36:32,500
have counselors their safety and
maybe a multitude of counselors

621
00:36:32,500 –> 00:36:35,200
in your equation.
There may be multiple Council

622
00:36:35,200 –> 00:36:38,100
counselors in a Consortium of
the cliches in your region.

623
00:36:38,400 –> 00:36:41,400
And you may not have enough
Council among Brothers to solve,

624
00:36:41,400 –> 00:36:44,000
the problem at hand.
So you have to find a counselor

625
00:36:44,000 –> 00:36:49,500
who does have enough experience
and who will not go against what

626
00:36:49,500 –> 00:36:52,000
you believes.
There’s a big conversation up

627
00:36:52,000 –> 00:36:54,100
front that says, this is what we
believe, we don’t want any

628
00:36:54,100 –> 00:36:57,300
Council to counteract this, we
won’t don’t want the wrong, kind

629
00:36:57,300 –> 00:36:58,800
of advice, and you have to be
specific.

630
00:36:59,400 –> 00:37:01,500
With the counselor when he
agrees and he says, well we

631
00:37:01,500 –> 00:37:03,600
would never do, this will
support what you believe?

632
00:37:04,200 –> 00:37:06,500
Then you have a cancer, you can
work with especially if he sees

633
00:37:06,500 –> 00:37:08,000
into the understands the
problem.

634
00:37:08,400 –> 00:37:11,100
So that’s auxiliary Council on
the basis of that principle.

635
00:37:11,500 –> 00:37:14,900
And then there’s another verse
that that kind of says that

636
00:37:14,900 –> 00:37:18,900
exposure would be uses is
Justified, its in Ephesians 5,

637
00:37:19,400 –> 00:37:21,500
try to learn what is pleasing to
the world.

638
00:37:21,700 –> 00:37:25,000
Take no part in the unfruitful
works of darkness but instead

639
00:37:25,000 –> 00:37:32,200
expose them I’ve seen a case or
a brother They took part in the

640
00:37:32,200 –> 00:37:37,800
unfruitful works of darkness by
supporting and defending the

641
00:37:37,800 –> 00:37:41,400
abusive brother and he thought
he was the Christ Image in this,

642
00:37:41,500 –> 00:37:45,800
but instead, he was, he was
actually taking part in his

643
00:37:45,800 –> 00:37:48,000
unfruitful work.
That was defending him in every

644
00:37:48,000 –> 00:37:49,300
regard.
Had no confidence.

645
00:37:49,300 –> 00:37:52,000
Anything, we were trying to do
and just counteracted everything

646
00:37:52,000 –> 00:37:53,300
we did.
He was a brother who thought he

647
00:37:53,300 –> 00:37:57,000
was behaving like Christ, but
I’m not going to analyze why

648
00:37:57,000 –> 00:37:59,800
this happened in his mind, but
he actually, I did this so I’m

649
00:37:59,800 –> 00:38:02,200
saying it’s possible.
That’s the way it happens.

650
00:38:02,500 –> 00:38:05,800
You become sort of self-deceived
in a savior image and you don’t

651
00:38:05,800 –> 00:38:09,900
really apply what needs to be
applied in the problem instead.

652
00:38:09,900 –> 00:38:13,600
It says, expose them for.
It is a shame even to speak of

653
00:38:13,600 –> 00:38:15,900
the things that they do in
secret, but when anything is

654
00:38:15,900 –> 00:38:18,900
exposed By the Light becomes
visible, for anything that

655
00:38:18,900 –> 00:38:22,500
becomes visible is light and
it’s very painful thing to

656
00:38:22,500 –> 00:38:26,300
expose these unfruitful works.
But when you do the pain is like

657
00:38:26,300 –> 00:38:28,900
surgery, you go through a period
where it really hurts.

658
00:38:29,200 –> 00:38:33,500
In order to get well, the
healing follows the remedy and

659
00:38:33,500 –> 00:38:36,300
the remedy can frequently be
involved with very painful

660
00:38:36,300 –> 00:38:39,300
conditions.
There’s another aspect of this

661
00:38:39,300 –> 00:38:41,200
and that’s obedience to the laws
of the land.

662
00:38:41,200 –> 00:38:44,400
So, in your state, let’s say in
Pennsylvania, I think it must be

663
00:38:44,400 –> 00:38:47,100
in Pennsylvania.
That reporting is mandated to

664
00:38:47,100 –> 00:38:53,000
church Elders.
Then it’s important for a

665
00:38:53,000 –> 00:38:58,900
glacial use of state law and it
becomes necessary in the context

666
00:38:58,900 –> 00:39:01,200
of these The scriptures declare
these things and exhort and

667
00:39:01,200 –> 00:39:03,400
reprove with all authority.
Let no one.

668
00:39:03,400 –> 00:39:07,200
Disregard, you remind them to be
submissive to the rulers and

669
00:39:07,200 –> 00:39:10,400
authorities, to be obedient to
be ready for any honest work.

670
00:39:10,500 –> 00:39:14,700
And what we are talking about
when we expose abuse is we’re

671
00:39:14,700 –> 00:39:18,900
using an honest work to uncover
a very dishonest.

672
00:39:18,900 –> 00:39:23,600
One, very deceptive dark hidden
dishonest work.

673
00:39:24,200 –> 00:39:26,600
So to counteract that with
honesty and I’ve been told

674
00:39:26,600 –> 00:39:30,700
there’s a brother in California,
who is a Director of of a

675
00:39:30,700 –> 00:39:33,900
counseling center and we had
lots of conversations with him

676
00:39:33,900 –> 00:39:36,300
along the way and he said, you
know, when a family is used to

677
00:39:36,300 –> 00:39:39,700
hiding everything and they live,
kind of in the shadows of

678
00:39:40,100 –> 00:39:43,600
covering cover up, nobody will
admit anything to themselves or

679
00:39:43,600 –> 00:39:46,700
anybody else.
And they are used to basically

680
00:39:46,700 –> 00:39:48,800
lying about families conditions
at home.

681
00:39:48,800 –> 00:39:53,600
He said to take that family and
start operating on a level where

682
00:39:53,600 –> 00:39:55,900
the truth is out.
On the table, he said, is an

683
00:39:55,900 –> 00:39:59,000
extraordinarily painful
experience for a family and many

684
00:39:59,100 –> 00:40:02,800
Of them don’t survive.
It, it’s so painful to work with

685
00:40:02,800 –> 00:40:04,700
truth.
When you’re used to covering it

686
00:40:04,700 –> 00:40:07,500
up with deception, not
willingly.

687
00:40:07,500 –> 00:40:10,400
But as a necessity, if that’s
the case.

688
00:40:12,100 –> 00:40:13,500
Then there’s judgment against
law.

689
00:40:13,500 –> 00:40:15,800
Breakers in scripture, in Romans
13.

690
00:40:15,800 –> 00:40:18,500
Paul says, let every person be
subject to the governing

691
00:40:18,500 –> 00:40:20,000
authorities for there is no
Authority.

692
00:40:20,000 –> 00:40:23,600
Except from God, those that
exist have been instituted by

693
00:40:23,600 –> 00:40:26,900
God, especially, I think, Child,
Protective Services must have

694
00:40:26,900 –> 00:40:29,900
been instituted by God to
protect their children, wherever

695
00:40:29,900 –> 00:40:34,600
this can be done, because they
become a threat to evildoers.

696
00:40:35,700 –> 00:40:38,400
So he says, therefore he could
resist the authorities, resist

697
00:40:38,400 –> 00:40:41,200
Oregon’s appointed and those who
resist will incur judgments.

698
00:40:41,200 –> 00:40:43,800
So this is the principle that
even sounds a little bit

699
00:40:43,800 –> 00:40:48,200
stronger in defense of going to
authorities and seeing, if you

700
00:40:48,200 –> 00:40:52,100
can do whatever it takes to stop
this problem, because it kills

701
00:40:52,100 –> 00:40:55,100
children emotionally and can’t
result actually in worse things

702
00:40:55,100 –> 00:40:59,000
than that.
So that’s the scriptural basis

703
00:40:59,000 –> 00:41:04,500
for our having a policy on it.
I’m going to turn your attention

704
00:41:04,500 –> 00:41:08,500
to evidence of change because
that’s the big question when

705
00:41:08,600 –> 00:41:12,600
you’re looking for a Penance.
And if you need to repent, then

706
00:41:12,600 –> 00:41:14,800
this will also help.
You understand what it is.

707
00:41:14,800 –> 00:41:17,600
That actually applies to
repentance.

708
00:41:18,100 –> 00:41:20,400
So you see the practicality of
this when we look at the list,

709
00:41:20,400 –> 00:41:24,300
there are five steps in
Repentance that provide evidence

710
00:41:24,300 –> 00:41:26,100
of a change of heart, that’s
what repentance means.

711
00:41:26,100 –> 00:41:28,800
If there’s been a change of
heart, the big question is if

712
00:41:28,800 –> 00:41:32,600
somebody is crying like Esau and
they have a great tears.

713
00:41:33,100 –> 00:41:36,900
They really don’t mean it.
How can you differentiate

714
00:41:36,900 –> 00:41:40,600
between somebody that begging
for forgiveness and appealing to

715
00:41:40,600 –> 00:41:44,100
all the grace of the Cross?
But remain unrepentant as

716
00:41:44,100 –> 00:41:46,400
compared to someone who is
begging for forgiveness, will

717
00:41:46,400 –> 00:41:49,000
all the same tears.
But they are willing to follow a

718
00:41:49,000 –> 00:41:52,500
process that proves that their
repentance is genuine, that’s

719
00:41:52,500 –> 00:41:56,200
what we’re looking at here.
So Step One is they have to be

720
00:41:56,200 –> 00:41:58,800
able to say what they did was
that was wrong.

721
00:41:59,200 –> 00:42:00,700
Is that simple?
This is what I did.

722
00:42:00,700 –> 00:42:02,500
That was wrong.
A person is not repent.

723
00:42:02,700 –> 00:42:04,700
It has a very hard time finding
in his heart.

724
00:42:04,700 –> 00:42:05,100
What?
He did?

725
00:42:05,100 –> 00:42:07,600
That was wrong.
He’s always justifying himself.

726
00:42:07,600 –> 00:42:09,700
If he’s narcissistic, he can’t
do anything wrong.

727
00:42:10,500 –> 00:42:12,600
He’s right in his own eyes, he
never did anything wrong.

728
00:42:13,100 –> 00:42:15,800
So this is critical to
understand what I did was wrong.

729
00:42:15,800 –> 00:42:19,500
If somebody has honest about
that but you cannot tell them

730
00:42:19,800 –> 00:42:22,000
what they did.
That was wrong and then have

731
00:42:22,000 –> 00:42:24,400
them say well, I’m so sorry
about that because they that

732
00:42:24,400 –> 00:42:26,900
doesn’t prove anything you just
let them know what they’re

733
00:42:26,900 –> 00:42:30,400
supposed to say.
They have to do the work of

734
00:42:30,400 –> 00:42:33,300
their own repentance.
So you ask them.

735
00:42:34,300 –> 00:42:36,000
Let us know when you understand
what you did.

736
00:42:36,000 –> 00:42:37,800
That was wrong.
You don’t tell you, don’t give

737
00:42:37,800 –> 00:42:40,200
me any hints because a clever
person.

738
00:42:40,200 –> 00:42:42,700
Who Waits way human, you know,
how human nature Works.

739
00:42:42,900 –> 00:42:45,700
Given the slightest little hint,
no, reflect that, right back to

740
00:42:45,707 –> 00:42:47,200
you and say, well, this is what
I’m doing is wrong.

741
00:42:48,000 –> 00:42:51,400
So you don’t want to tell them,
you want them to discover

742
00:42:51,400 –> 00:42:54,200
themselves, then they should say
why it was bad for them.

743
00:42:55,300 –> 00:42:58,600
What they did was wrong bad for
them, they should also They

744
00:42:58,600 –> 00:43:02,200
correspondingly y, it was bad
for the person they hurt if they

745
00:43:02,200 –> 00:43:04,200
can’t do that.
A person is narcissistic as a

746
00:43:04,200 –> 00:43:07,600
mental disorder or right in his
own eyes were is given over to

747
00:43:07,600 –> 00:43:10,800
his proud, his bride.
He doesn’t know why it was bad

748
00:43:10,800 –> 00:43:13,400
for him and he couldn’t possibly
say why it was bad for somebody

749
00:43:13,400 –> 00:43:15,400
else.
Because he thinks what he did

750
00:43:15,700 –> 00:43:17,600
was good for them.
And what they did was bad for

751
00:43:17,600 –> 00:43:20,900
him, what they did was bad for
him, not other way around, what

752
00:43:20,900 –> 00:43:23,000
I did with that, for the person
I hurt.

753
00:43:23,200 –> 00:43:25,700
So they’re all confused.
They can’t they can’t come up

754
00:43:25,700 –> 00:43:28,300
with this unless a genuine, if
they’re genuine.

755
00:43:28,400 –> 00:43:30,300
You’ll hear straight answers to
these questions.

756
00:43:30,800 –> 00:43:35,100
Step 4, what I will do to ensure
that it will never happen.

757
00:43:35,100 –> 00:43:40,100
Again, I know, one example, that
was given to us was a man who

758
00:43:40,100 –> 00:43:42,800
was in this process had to
promise that he couldn’t go

759
00:43:43,300 –> 00:43:45,300
within five miles of the ocean
front.

760
00:43:45,900 –> 00:43:48,300
As he got near anyone, had a
bathing, any woman that had a

761
00:43:48,308 –> 00:43:50,300
bathing suit on.
He be tempted to his problem.

762
00:43:50,300 –> 00:43:53,700
I don’t think we never did find
out what that was but he could

763
00:43:53,700 –> 00:43:56,300
his promise was he would stay
outside.

764
00:43:56,300 –> 00:43:59,500
We know another family where
there was abuse Or condition

765
00:43:59,500 –> 00:44:02,800
that needed needed changing and
they had the whole family had to

766
00:44:02,808 –> 00:44:05,100
get rid of their phones.
Nobody in the family, could have

767
00:44:05,100 –> 00:44:07,600
a phone in the house.
It’s a problem.

768
00:44:07,600 –> 00:44:09,900
They were trying to solve and
that’s what they did to ensure.

769
00:44:10,200 –> 00:44:12,700
That the problem that is in this
case, it was a loss of a little

770
00:44:12,700 –> 00:44:16,200
girl would never happen again.
They didn’t lose her.

771
00:44:16,200 –> 00:44:18,600
They saved your butt to prevent
that from ever being a threat.

772
00:44:18,600 –> 00:44:20,100
Again, they had to get rid of
their phones.

773
00:44:20,600 –> 00:44:23,400
You think, if you’re serious
about something about solving a

774
00:44:23,400 –> 00:44:27,000
problem, you’d be willing to
apply the simple things.

775
00:44:27,000 –> 00:44:29,900
They’re required in this list
and the last one is what I will

776
00:44:29,900 –> 00:44:31,700
do to make restitution to the
person.

777
00:44:31,700 –> 00:44:34,600
I heard.
I think Esau did that with

778
00:44:34,600 –> 00:44:36,800
Jacob.
I think he made restitution to

779
00:44:37,100 –> 00:44:40,200
When Jacob came back and they
hugged and they shared livestock

780
00:44:40,200 –> 00:44:45,300
together and it didn’t turn, he
saw his heart but he did repent

781
00:44:45,300 –> 00:44:48,900
of his intent to kill his
brother, his anger.

782
00:44:50,000 –> 00:44:52,600
So once again, if you want to
download the Ecclesia abuse

783
00:44:52,600 –> 00:44:55,600
policy, this will be in the PDF
file that you can download from

784
00:44:55,600 –> 00:45:00,100
your website or you can remember
this meant design.com comfort,

785
00:45:00,500 –> 00:45:03,300
you will see the abuse policy.
If you’d like to use that as a

786
00:45:03,300 –> 00:45:07,100
template in your Ecclesia, to
extend the influence of what

787
00:45:07,100 –> 00:45:10,500
we’re talking about here Beyond
today, then you’re welcome to

788
00:45:10,500 –> 00:45:15,800
do.
So in scriptures, there’s this

789
00:45:15,800 –> 00:45:20,500
problem of abuse is identified,
for example, in in Abigail’s

790
00:45:20,500 –> 00:45:23,300
relationship with nabel,
neighbors described, as a, as an

791
00:45:23,300 –> 00:45:27,600
insufferable fool, David was
going to kill him and a bit me.

792
00:45:27,600 –> 00:45:31,300
I saved his life but this is the
description of him.

793
00:45:31,400 –> 00:45:32,900
I think we would all probably
agree.

794
00:45:32,900 –> 00:45:36,800
He was probably abusive.
The man’s name was nabal and his

795
00:45:37,000 –> 00:45:39,600
His name was Abigail, the woman
was intelligent and beautiful

796
00:45:39,600 –> 00:45:42,900
with the Mana KB was harsh and
evil in his dealings.

797
00:45:43,400 –> 00:45:46,800
He is such a worthless fool.
Nobody can talk to him and that

798
00:45:46,800 –> 00:45:49,100
sounds to me, like he was right
in his own eyes.

799
00:45:49,100 –> 00:45:53,700
He was probably narcissistic.
So this was Nable and yet and

800
00:45:53,700 –> 00:45:56,700
yet, what’s the power of
spiritual things?

801
00:45:56,700 –> 00:46:00,300
How does it take everything and
become unnatural to what his

802
00:46:00,300 –> 00:46:02,700
fleshly and, and turn it around
and say?

803
00:46:02,700 –> 00:46:06,000
But there may be hope here, this
is what she did.

804
00:46:06,900 –> 00:46:10,900
She tried to save his life.
He had got an ending up judging

805
00:46:10,900 –> 00:46:15,000
him on the spot then but she his
wife was so wonderful.

806
00:46:15,000 –> 00:46:17,900
She tried to save it and
certainly one of the king’s

807
00:46:17,900 –> 00:46:22,600
favor she had no guile.
This is the point about guile

808
00:46:22,600 –> 00:46:25,600
and guileless – there are a lot
of women that are kind of

809
00:46:25,600 –> 00:46:29,600
guileless or helpless that makes
Chic vulnerable.

810
00:46:29,800 –> 00:46:33,800
So those of us who are humble
before God and humble before men

811
00:46:33,800 –> 00:46:35,800
have a certain level of
vulnerability.

812
00:46:36,700 –> 00:46:39,700
I’m not going to spend a lot of
time on this but I want to tell

813
00:46:39,700 –> 00:46:42,200
you that dr.
Thomas was such an one he was a

814
00:46:42,200 –> 00:46:46,500
little sheep in his own right to
and he entrusted to sail his

815
00:46:46,500 –> 00:46:49,600
property twice in his life.
Once a house, a very nice house

816
00:46:49,600 –> 00:46:52,800
in Richmond.
And another big farm around

817
00:46:52,800 –> 00:46:57,100
Chicago to this to to an agent
to sell for him.

818
00:46:57,400 –> 00:47:00,600
And in both cases, the agents
old house and absconded with the

819
00:47:00,600 –> 00:47:04,600
funds, he bought a house and
trusted an agent to sell it.

820
00:47:04,800 –> 00:47:08,300
I lost the entire value of his
property because the agents told

821
00:47:08,300 –> 00:47:10,900
phones right out from under him.
So you tell me that isn’t a

822
00:47:10,908 –> 00:47:15,400
vulnerable, a Meek and spirit
that turns vulnerable to a

823
00:47:15,408 –> 00:47:20,900
devious mind even dr.
Dunn’s with all that strength.

824
00:47:22,400 –> 00:47:24,900
Even though I walk through the
valley of the shadow of death

825
00:47:25,000 –> 00:47:28,300
says David.
I will fear no evil for you are

826
00:47:28,300 –> 00:47:30,800
with me, your rod and your
staff.

827
00:47:30,800 –> 00:47:33,300
They comfort me.
So being vulnerable sheep.

828
00:47:33,600 –> 00:47:37,300
How does God’s rod and his staff
Comfort us?

829
00:47:38,100 –> 00:47:40,700
The rod is there.
It’s a device that Shepherds

830
00:47:40,700 –> 00:47:45,400
used for protection and guidance
and be away a wolf or a hostile

831
00:47:45,400 –> 00:47:47,900
animal.
They guide the Chic with it.

832
00:47:47,900 –> 00:47:52,000
So protection and guidance are
two of the things that we get.

833
00:47:52,200 –> 00:47:56,800
Life in the truth from a high
priest and from God’s word the

834
00:47:56,800 –> 00:47:59,800
staff is for Rescue and
Corrections of protection and

835
00:47:59,800 –> 00:48:02,000
guidance.
Rescue and correction are the

836
00:48:02,000 –> 00:48:05,300
things that a good shepherd and
we are in the care.

837
00:48:05,600 –> 00:48:07,700
In this fold of a very good
shepherd.

838
00:48:07,900 –> 00:48:10,000
Those are the things that we get
from him.

839
00:48:10,600 –> 00:48:13,300
The way, the little crook worth.
I don’t know if you ever do

840
00:48:13,300 –> 00:48:16,100
this, but it’s just big enough
to fit around the hook of a

841
00:48:16,100 –> 00:48:17,700
sheep.
And if a sheep gets caught in a

842
00:48:17,700 –> 00:48:22,000
Thicket Shepherd, can grab a
sheep with, with his the hook.

843
00:48:22,100 –> 00:48:27,600
Around the Sheep’s hook and and
pulling that the rescue him from

844
00:48:27,800 –> 00:48:30,600
getting stuck and I think she
probably gets stuck a lot.

845
00:48:30,800 –> 00:48:35,000
My impression is that brother
does Dev Des mansur told us that

846
00:48:35,000 –> 00:48:38,300
she /, so dumb that they will
die inside of water rather than

847
00:48:38,300 –> 00:48:40,900
ago and taking a drink.
Shepherd has to call them to the

848
00:48:40,900 –> 00:48:45,100
water and and get them to drink.
We’ve them to water and make

849
00:48:45,100 –> 00:48:48,100
them drink because they are
otherwise, so innocent and

850
00:48:48,100 –> 00:48:50,600
vulnerable that they will die
inside of water.

851
00:48:50,900 –> 00:48:54,800
Drinking it on there.
So sheep need Shepherds and we

852
00:48:54,800 –> 00:48:57,600
are supposed to be sheep like,
that, doesn’t mean we’re done.

853
00:48:58,100 –> 00:49:02,700
It means that we need to be led
and rescued and protected and

854
00:49:02,700 –> 00:49:07,800
corrected by Our Shepherd, so
protection and rescue Comfort

855
00:49:07,800 –> 00:49:11,400
cheap when they are helpless.
And that’s why Jesus said, pray

856
00:49:11,600 –> 00:49:16,800
this lead us not into temptation
and Deliver Us from Evil.

857
00:49:18,500 –> 00:49:22,200
This is something Solomon said
about the oppressed and

858
00:49:22,200 –> 00:49:25,700
vulnerability of abuse,
according to Solomon again, I

859
00:49:25,700 –> 00:49:28,600
observe all the acts of
Oppression being done under the

860
00:49:28,600 –> 00:49:32,100
sun.
Look at the tears of those who

861
00:49:32,100 –> 00:49:35,900
are oppressed, They have no one
to comfort them.

862
00:49:37,000 –> 00:49:40,900
Power is with those who oppress
them, and they have no one to

863
00:49:40,900 –> 00:49:42,800
comfort them.
And Jesus was oppressed like

864
00:49:42,800 –> 00:49:44,800
this.
He was abused by the Pharisees.

865
00:49:45,100 –> 00:49:47,900
And the people who hated in the
people who despises his

866
00:49:48,000 –> 00:49:50,900
Assumption of Authority, or they
thought was an assumption of

867
00:49:50,900 –> 00:49:57,200
wrongful, some Assumption of
authority and It’s as if him I

868
00:49:57,200 –> 00:50:00,800
look for pity.
Found none.

869
00:50:02,100 –> 00:50:06,600
He was abused and he couldn’t
find any making true.

870
00:50:06,600 –> 00:50:11,600
What Solomon observes here.
Justice please for correction,

871
00:50:11,600 –> 00:50:13,900
so we love Justice along with
Christ.

872
00:50:13,900 –> 00:50:17,900
He’s he’s the purveyor of
justice and and this verse says,

873
00:50:17,900 –> 00:50:21,300
Isaiah says wash yourselves
cleanse yourselves, remove your

874
00:50:21,300 –> 00:50:25,000
evil Deeds From My Sight stop
doing evil learn to do.

875
00:50:25,000 –> 00:50:27,000
What is good?
Seek Justice?

876
00:50:27,100 –> 00:50:31,400
Correct the oppressor God may
work with both.

877
00:50:31,400 –> 00:50:33,400
You remember, he worked with
another abuser.

878
00:50:34,500 –> 00:50:37,600
And actually put him into
prominence and Ecclesia life.

879
00:50:37,600 –> 00:50:42,200
He took the Apostle Paul who was
murdering his brethren, And he

880
00:50:42,600 –> 00:50:45,600
caught him up short.
He changed his heart and he

881
00:50:45,600 –> 00:50:49,000
turned him from an abuser into
the man who set the world on

882
00:50:49,000 –> 00:50:53,800
fire with the Light of Christ.
So there is hope for both.

883
00:50:54,000 –> 00:50:57,100
God may work with both the poor
and the pressure have this in

884
00:50:57,100 –> 00:51:00,600
common the Lord gives light to
the eyes of both.

885
00:51:00,600 –> 00:51:05,400
So there’s also a balancing Q in
this whole message that says, if

886
00:51:05,400 –> 00:51:09,900
there’s any way we can, let’s go
to work to see if we can turn

887
00:51:09,900 –> 00:51:12,600
abusers, heart into a loving
heart.

888
00:51:13,400 –> 00:51:16,600
David foreshadows Christ abuse
when he says how long O Lord,

889
00:51:16,600 –> 00:51:21,000
will you hide yourself forever?
Remember, Lord, the ridicule

890
00:51:21,000 –> 00:51:24,200
against your servants.
In my heart, I carry abuse from

891
00:51:24,200 –> 00:51:27,700
All Peoples, how your enemies
have ridiculed Lord, and how

892
00:51:27,700 –> 00:51:31,100
they have ridiculed.
Every step of your anointed, may

893
00:51:31,100 –> 00:51:35,100
the Lord, be praised forever.
And this is, is what happened to

894
00:51:35,100 –> 00:51:37,100
David.
He speaks of it, I think

895
00:51:37,100 –> 00:51:40,700
prophetically of Christ saying
of both of them, They Carried

896
00:51:40,700 –> 00:51:43,700
abuse in their heart, and if
you’ve come across it in your

897
00:51:43,700 –> 00:51:48,500
life, you will also carry it in
your heart and you will be

898
00:51:48,500 –> 00:51:51,800
ridiculed.
Solomon’s advice about abuse and

899
00:51:51,800 –> 00:51:54,800
we mentioned this earlier as
drive out, a scoffer and strife,

900
00:51:54,800 –> 00:51:56,900
will go out and quarreling in a
peaceful cease.

901
00:51:57,500 –> 00:52:01,100
Whoever corrects a scoffer will
get himself abuse and he who

902
00:52:01,100 –> 00:52:04,200
refused a wicked man.
Incurs injury, do not reprove a

903
00:52:04,200 –> 00:52:07,400
scoffer, or he will hate you,
the balance on that is that when

904
00:52:07,400 –> 00:52:10,400
we were working with this
abusive family Gene, and I have

905
00:52:10,400 –> 00:52:13,400
put a deadbolt lock on the door
every time he went in the house,

906
00:52:13,700 –> 00:52:16,200
and we knew that if this man
came to the door, I told Jean.

907
00:52:16,200 –> 00:52:17,900
Don’t ever open it, he’s
dangerous.

908
00:52:18,300 –> 00:52:20,400
I was in court one day and I
told Clerk.

909
00:52:20,400 –> 00:52:23,400
I said if I get murdered, this
is the guy that did it.

910
00:52:24,400 –> 00:52:26,600
I was, I was vulnerable to this
whole thing, and that’s what

911
00:52:26,600 –> 00:52:29,700
solemn is talking about.
You gonna correct the scoff or

912
00:52:29,700 –> 00:52:32,900
you’re at risk.
Paul addresses separation and

913
00:52:32,900 –> 00:52:37,600
abuse is another thing that
occurs where somebody needs to a

914
00:52:37,600 –> 00:52:41,600
woman needs relief, but if the
unbelieving partner separates,

915
00:52:41,600 –> 00:52:43,700
let it be.
So, in such cases, the brother

916
00:52:43,700 –> 00:52:46,500
or sister is not enslaved.
God has called you to peace.

917
00:52:46,700 –> 00:52:51,100
When there is no peace at home,
you have Paul’s opinion that

918
00:52:51,100 –> 00:52:54,000
it’s okay to separate with the
view of restoration

919
00:52:54,100 –> 00:52:57,000
Reconciliation.
And if separation is only way,

920
00:52:57,000 –> 00:53:00,000
you can breathe at night, to go
to sleep, then it becomes an

921
00:53:00,000 –> 00:53:06,100
essential part of healing.
Then in the end, once again,

922
00:53:06,900 –> 00:53:11,600
there’s the side of what will
happen in the Kingdom of this is

923
00:53:11,600 –> 00:53:13,300
a message to take the time to
make.

924
00:53:13,300 –> 00:53:14,800
I know we’re getting a little
bit long here.

925
00:53:15,100 –> 00:53:18,100
It’s been a long day.
Three in a row for me, three in

926
00:53:18,100 –> 00:53:22,200
a row for you.
Same three in a row, but this is

927
00:53:22,200 –> 00:53:25,100
so important that I could end
here, but I’m not going to

928
00:53:25,100 –> 00:53:27,400
because this is an aspect of
God’s judgments.

929
00:53:27,400 –> 00:53:29,900
In the Kingdom that are
critically important and it’s a

930
00:53:29,908 –> 00:53:33,500
message that comes to us from
Malachi two fathers.

931
00:53:34,300 –> 00:53:38,800
It’s a message to father’s.
So if this was a verse, it would

932
00:53:38,800 –> 00:53:42,400
say, instead of saying
coastlands, listen up what we’re

933
00:53:42,400 –> 00:53:43,500
saying?
Here is father’s.

934
00:53:44,200 –> 00:53:47,400
Listen up.
Not a father yet.

935
00:53:47,400 –> 00:53:51,700
You still need to listen because
you maybe one day a message for

936
00:53:51,700 –> 00:53:54,800
husbands and fires God’s.
Judgments are spoken of in two

937
00:53:54,800 –> 00:54:00,500
senses Fire Light.
The light is what led did you

938
00:54:00,500 –> 00:54:02,500
through the Wilderness?
The fire is what consume the

939
00:54:02,500 –> 00:54:06,000
animal animal flesh.
So, these are both aspects of

940
00:54:06,000 –> 00:54:08,800
God’s protection and his
judgment against flesh.

941
00:54:09,500 –> 00:54:12,500
This is how God will deal with
abusers, who tortured his

942
00:54:12,500 –> 00:54:14,600
beloved in his little ones in
the Kingdom.

943
00:54:15,800 –> 00:54:18,500
There’s fire and there’s light.
The fire.

944
00:54:19,400 –> 00:54:21,300
He said Malachi is going to burn
up.

945
00:54:21,300 –> 00:54:24,400
The wicked will be like, stubble
the light will heal.

946
00:54:24,400 –> 00:54:27,200
The faithful.
These are God’s judgments

947
00:54:27,200 –> 00:54:30,900
operating on those who have
tortured and those who were

948
00:54:30,900 –> 00:54:34,400
tortured.
Both are his recompense.

949
00:54:34,400 –> 00:54:38,700
In other words, the payback he
says a fire behold.

950
00:54:38,700 –> 00:54:41,400
The day comes that will burn as
an oven and all the proud.

951
00:54:41,400 –> 00:54:44,000
Yea, he all that do wickedly
shall be stubble.

952
00:54:45,600 –> 00:54:47,000
It’s what you have to look
forward to.

953
00:54:47,000 –> 00:54:51,200
If you knew the truth.
You, you are responsible for

954
00:54:51,200 –> 00:54:54,100
your knowledge and you thought
that you could Escape God’s

955
00:54:54,100 –> 00:54:57,800
judgments.
The wicked will be among those

956
00:54:57,800 –> 00:54:59,700
who he turns this.
Double the data comes, we’ll

957
00:54:59,700 –> 00:55:02,300
burn them up, saith the Lord of
hosts and it shall leave them.

958
00:55:02,300 –> 00:55:06,500
Neither root nor Jam no branch
and there is comfort in this

959
00:55:07,100 –> 00:55:09,200
will see tomorrow.
There’s comfort in this for

960
00:55:09,200 –> 00:55:12,100
people who’ve suffered at the
hand of his abuse on the other

961
00:55:12,100 –> 00:55:14,900
hand, he says, going to burn the
wicked up on one hand.

962
00:55:14,900 –> 00:55:18,900
So those are my calves that are
held in a stall for a sacrifice

963
00:55:19,100 –> 00:55:21,600
and then cut up and burned with
fire.

964
00:55:21,700 –> 00:55:25,100
If it’s a bull, it’s totally.
If you’re a man like a bull then

965
00:55:25,100 –> 00:55:27,600
there was a plenty message.
At Milan, the sacrifices because

966
00:55:27,600 –> 00:55:32,300
the bull was totally consumed.
Bull flesh and it was consumed

967
00:55:32,300 –> 00:55:35,300
so much for bullies.
But then on the other hand he

968
00:55:35,300 –> 00:55:39,500
says, but unto you that fear, my
name shall the sun of

969
00:55:39,500 –> 00:55:43,400
righteousness arise with healing
in his wings and you shall go

970
00:55:43,400 –> 00:55:46,000
forth and grow up as calves from
the stall.

971
00:55:46,000 –> 00:55:49,500
So there’s two animals here.
One set of animals are burned up

972
00:55:49,500 –> 00:55:52,400
by God’s judgments and the
others, go and dance in the

973
00:55:52,400 –> 00:55:55,200
morning.
So, glad to be out and free from

974
00:55:55,200 –> 00:55:56,800
the stall.
They’re no longer bound up by

975
00:55:56,800 –> 00:55:59,800
even by a stall, there’s no
judgment in store for them.

976
00:56:00,200 –> 00:56:01,800
They dance.
I love you ever seen little

977
00:56:01,800 –> 00:56:04,700
calves dance, but it’s just the
sweetest little thing that

978
00:56:04,700 –> 00:56:06,700
kicked their legs up.
They jump up and down and go

979
00:56:06,700 –> 00:56:10,200
this way and that and they’re
just so happy to be out there in

980
00:56:10,200 –> 00:56:13,100
the morning sun.
Well, that’s a picture of saints

981
00:56:13,100 –> 00:56:14,400
when they’re delivered in the
kingdom.

982
00:56:15,500 –> 00:56:18,600
And you you who are Saints will
tread down the wicked for they

983
00:56:18,600 –> 00:56:22,400
should be asses under the ashes
under the soles of your feet in

984
00:56:22,400 –> 00:56:26,100
the day that I shall do.
This says, the Lord earlier he

985
00:56:26,100 –> 00:56:32,300
had sent said this Mark these
words When I come, I will draw

986
00:56:32,300 –> 00:56:35,200
near to you and judgment.
And this is a very Stern.

987
00:56:35,500 –> 00:56:39,800
I’m putting my finger out like a
Stern Schoolmaster, but I think

988
00:56:39,800 –> 00:56:43,500
God’s finger is a little bit
more Sterner than mine and this

989
00:56:43,500 –> 00:56:45,800
is also the spirit of Christ in
judgment.

990
00:56:45,800 –> 00:56:50,900
I will be a swift witness
against deceivers, their abusers

991
00:56:51,800 –> 00:56:57,000
against adulterers, their
abusers against Liars, they’re

992
00:56:57,000 –> 00:57:03,900
also abusers, And against those
who oppress workers, widows and

993
00:57:03,900 –> 00:57:07,800
children, against those who turn
strangers away.

994
00:57:08,900 –> 00:57:12,100
Do not fear me, says the Lord of
hosts these men.

995
00:57:12,700 –> 00:57:15,500
They should fear God.
If they don’t know that, there’s

996
00:57:15,500 –> 00:57:17,700
nothing to fear.
But for those of us who know

997
00:57:17,700 –> 00:57:20,800
God, we think we can get rough
at home and get our way through

998
00:57:20,800 –> 00:57:24,500
being rough, being angry being
harsh, thing for feign, being

999
00:57:24,500 –> 00:57:28,100
cruel with our words, being
putting fear in the hearts of

1000
00:57:28,100 –> 00:57:32,200
our wives and our children.
I says you should be fearing me.

1001
00:57:32,900 –> 00:57:35,300
I’m something to be afraid of
and I will deal with you when

1002
00:57:35,300 –> 00:57:37,300
the time comes, that’s God’s
message.

1003
00:57:37,800 –> 00:57:40,600
The day is coming, I shall burn
them up.

1004
00:57:40,900 –> 00:57:44,200
On the other hand, you shall go
forth is casual install, but

1005
00:57:44,200 –> 00:57:48,500
unto you that fear my name,
Shall the sun of righteousness?

1006
00:57:48,500 –> 00:57:53,000
Arise with healing in his wings.
You shall go forth and grow up

1007
00:57:53,000 –> 00:57:58,000
as calves in the stall.
We hold I will send you Elijah.

1008
00:57:58,000 –> 00:58:00,500
This is the message and this is
this is where we’re going to

1009
00:58:00,500 –> 00:58:03,000
make the point.
So listen up if you get a little

1010
00:58:03,000 –> 00:58:06,400
bit tired wake up right now and
go ahead and listen to this

1011
00:58:06,400 –> 00:58:08,800
point in the context of what
we’re saying because this is the

1012
00:58:08,800 –> 00:58:12,400
end here and of the message and
it’s the point, it’s the bottom

1013
00:58:12,400 –> 00:58:13,700
line.
If you want to call it that

1014
00:58:13,900 –> 00:58:18,200
behold, I will send you Elijah
the prophet before the coming of

1015
00:58:18,200 –> 00:58:20,500
the great and Dreadful day of
the Lord is great.

1016
00:58:20,500 –> 00:58:23,500
For those people who’ve been
conserving him and it’s dreadful

1017
00:58:23,500 –> 00:58:27,700
for those people who have been
And he shall turn.

1018
00:58:27,700 –> 00:58:31,200
This is the work of Christ in
the world and this is the work

1019
00:58:31,200 –> 00:58:33,400
of his administration.
When you go forth to the

1020
00:58:33,400 –> 00:58:36,400
nation’s and become a blessing
to them, he shall turn.

1021
00:58:36,400 –> 00:58:40,200
The hearts of the father’s to
the children and the hearts of

1022
00:58:40,200 –> 00:58:44,400
the children, to their fathers,
lest I come, and smite the Earth

1023
00:58:44,400 –> 00:58:47,200
with a curse.
In other words, what he is

1024
00:58:47,200 –> 00:58:50,000
saying here is that the problem.
This is a last verse of the Old

1025
00:58:50,000 –> 00:58:52,100
Testament.
The problem with the whole

1026
00:58:52,100 –> 00:58:55,800
world, the problem that Jesus
ultimately came and Solve it as

1027
00:58:55,800 –> 00:58:59,200
sacrificing will resolve further
fully when he’s on the throne of

1028
00:58:59,200 –> 00:59:02,400
his father David.
This problem is that fathers are

1029
00:59:02,400 –> 00:59:05,900
selfish and children are
rebellious, and they’re probably

1030
00:59:05,900 –> 00:59:08,500
rebellious mostly because the
fathers are so selfish.

1031
00:59:09,000 –> 00:59:10,800
And this is the problem with the
whole earth.

1032
00:59:11,000 –> 00:59:14,400
Otherwise he wouldn’t have said,
lest I come and smite the Earth

1033
00:59:14,400 –> 00:59:17,800
with a curse?
I don’t mean to sound to sound

1034
00:59:17,800 –> 00:59:22,400
like I’m yelling at you about,
but I think maybe that point

1035
00:59:22,400 –> 00:59:25,600
needs to be that way.
Because if you have anger in

1036
00:59:25,600 –> 00:59:29,900
your bosom, You can remember
that anger rests in the bosom of

1037
00:59:29,900 –> 00:59:31,700
the fools.
I have it in mind and I have to

1038
00:59:31,700 –> 00:59:36,900
work very hard to keep it down.
I hate the anger, the anger has

1039
00:59:36,900 –> 00:59:39,700
to stop it.
Its destructive is the thing

1040
00:59:39,700 –> 00:59:43,200
that causes abuse and it’s the
problem here that Elijah will

1041
00:59:43,200 –> 00:59:44,900
correct.
First in Israel on the rest of

1042
00:59:44,900 –> 00:59:48,900
us will correct when we bring
Christ righteous law to the

1043
00:59:48,900 –> 00:59:52,200
whole world into the hearts of
men and women who are parents in

1044
00:59:52,200 –> 00:59:55,000
that day.
So that all the families of the

1045
00:59:55,000 –> 00:59:57,300
earth will be blessed and
blessed with peace.

1046
00:59:57,500 –> 01:00:02,400
Jesus blessed with happiness,
blessed with joy and love and

1047
01:00:02,400 –> 01:00:05,900
all those good things that are
promised to us in the fullness

1048
01:00:05,900 –> 01:00:09,700
of God’s word, that will be the
prevailing tone of this world in

1049
01:00:09,700 –> 01:00:15,500
the day that this particular
problem is resolved
